thinking way one-thing
Everybody is of course free to interpret the work in his own way., I think seeing a picture is one thing and interpreting it is another.
ideas may painting
There may or may not be an idea, and the meaning may just be that the painting exists.
artist favorite-artist fields
Merce is my favorite artist in any field,
absence attack early involved notion object work
At first I had some idea that the absence of color made the work more physical. Early on I was very involved with the notion of the painting as an object and tended to attack that idea from different directions.
mean drawing painting
To do a drawing for a painting most often means doing something very sketchy and schematic and then later making it polished.
fall kind clue
Make something, a kind of object, which as it changes or falls apart (dies as it were) or increases in its parts (grows as it were) offers no clue as to what its state or form or nature was at any previous time. Physical and Metaphysical. Obstinacy. Could this be a useful object?
art artist mind
I'm working in my mind.
art objects
Take an object. Do something to it. Do something else to it.
